So - all the fossil fuels are coming out of the ground aren't they? Is there any other course of events because I can't see it.
It's standard hmg technological optimism and social pessimism. I think it's basically earnest despite glib tone
'Technology will save the day' is the standard response to these concerns. Isn't the obvious conclusion to take from all this is that technology was a huge part of the problem all along? And that we need less technology, not more?
We need better, and less, technology, is my hunch.

Responsible for 40-50% of damage apparently (presumably the rest is a long tail all the way down to you & I)

Yes! They should Pay
Summary:
The shit list (a few states in there too):First, many of them knew what damage they were causing. According to the report, more than half of the carbon emissions produced since the industrial revolution were emitted since 1986, when the dangers of global warming were well-known. But these companies buried their own research findings and doubled down on fossil fuel extraction.
Second, many of these companies spend vast sums promoting climate denial and undermining support for renewable energy, electric vehicles, and other responses to the climate crisis. Industry lobbyists and think tanks, flush with money from fossil fuel companies and their executives, distort our democracy, making government accountable to their interests rather than to We the People.
Third, by doing these things, these companies prevented action during the brief window of time between climate science becoming clear and it becoming too late to avert disaster.Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates
